Spiritual Lethargy

Spiritual Lethargy (October 2, 2008)

Time…a precious resource. Something that we often squander! Overwhelmed, over worked and over challenged. We live in a weird time! The world is constantly throwing things at us! Satan loves it when we are busy and burdened! We (believers) know that we serve the King of Kings and the Lord or Lords! We are people of faith. The problem is that much of the time we are not sure of what we believe in! Lethargy has entered the North American Christian Church. The church is experiencing spiritual lethargy. God’s word teaches us to “Devote yourselves to prayer; stay alert in it with thanksgiving.” We can overcome the sluggishness! God wants us to succeed! The Apostle Paul instructs the church at Colossae to “Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the most of time.” What can we do to make the most of time? I believe the church needs to wake up! We need to realize the most effective tool that Satan has is to clutter and busy up the lives of Christians. We get tired and turn to self! Wake up! We must count on the God of the Universe! Are you spending the time that God gives you wisely? Take time today to talk with God! I love you all.
